What is Calcul8r?

Calcul8r is a simple but very powerful calculator built using html5 technologies.

The expression engine uses c8r, and numeric calculations are performed using the gmp, mpfr and mpc libraries.

Key Features

Simple, yet powerful

Expressions can be as simple or as complicated as you need them to be.

High precision

Numeric precision for floating point numbers can be configured up to two billion bits.

Big integers

Integers can be up to one million digits.

Local calculation

Calculations are performed on your local machine.

Fully featured

An extensive set of operators and functions are provided.

Syntax

Calcul8r uses a syntax similar to c or JavaScript.

Operators

The following table lists the supported operators in order of precedence:

Operator Description
, Sequence
+ Add
- Subtract
* Multiply
/ Divide
% Modulus (remainder)
^ Power
! (postfix) Factorial
- (prefix) Negative
() Subexpression, function call

Literals

Numeric literal values are treated as decimal by default. If no decimal point is given, the value is stored internally as an integer, otherwise it is stored as floating point.

Integers can also be input in the following bases:

Functions

Functions are called by specifying the name of the function followed by the list of arguments in brackets. Most functions take a single argument, but where multiple arguments are required, these should be separated by commas. The following functions are supported:

abs(x) - absolute

ceil(x) - integer ceiling

floor(x) - integer floor

trunc(x) - integer truncation

ln(x) - natural logarithm

exp(x) - Exponential

sin(a) - sine

cos(a) - cosine

tan(a) - tangent

asin(x) - arcsine

acos(x) - arccosine

atan(x) - arctangent

atan2(y,x) - arctangent (2 arg form)

sinh(a) - hyperbolic sine

cosh(a) - hyperbolic cosine

tanh(a) - hyperbolic tangent

sqrt(a) - square root

gcd(a,b,...) - greatest common divisor

lcm(a,b,...) - lowest common multiple

mean(a,b,...) - arithmetic mean

fib(n) - returns the nth Fibonacci number

bin(n) - convert integer to binary string with 0b prefix

oct(n) - convert integer to octal string with 0o prefix

hex(n) - convert integer to hexadecimal string with 0x prefix

Constants

Several named constants are available, including PI and e.
